  • The Impact of Group Attitudes on Vote Choice in Gubernatorial Contests
    NES Pilot Report: The Impact of Group Attitudes on Vote Choice in Gubernatorial Contests Abstract This report examines the group responsiveness questions asked on the 1998 NES Pilot Study. These questions were designed to assess voter perceptions of candidate support for specific groups. We provide some descriptive information on these new measures, and estimate their performance as predictors of intended vote choice. We find that the questions do a fairly good job of distinguishing between the candidates and influencing the vote-decision, provided that the candidates actually differ ideologically. There was also some evidence that respondents mis- perceived the candidates’ “true” positions, but this varied dramatically across states. We conclude by suggesting that the Board include these items on the 2000 Election Study, with some modifications. Memo To: NES Board of Overseers From: Vincent L. Hutchings and Nicholas A. Valentino Regarding: New Group Responsiveness questions on the ’98 Pilot Study Introduction We proposed that the NES Board use the 1998 Pilot to explore the influence of group- attitudes on candidate evaluations. All aspects of our proposal were not formally accepted, but variations of some of our questions did end up on the 1998 Pilot Study. Specifically, we proposed that the Board examine whether perceptions of candidate responsiveness to interest groups affected their vote-decision. We anticipated that such attitudes would be influential especially when group-specific appeals were made salient in the campaign. This notion, of course, has a long tradition in the field of public opinion dating back at least as far as the original Columbia studies. Empirical support for this idea has, however been somewhat mixed.

  • Party Competition in Illinois: Republican Prospects in a Blue State
    Party Competition in Illinois: Republican Prospects in a Blue State Introduction Campaigns and elections in Illinois are always interesting and exciting spectacles. They are full of colorful characters, great plots, and unexpected twists to the story line. Each election brings new characters and different stories, but each builds on the rich tradition and culture of a big and diverse state which takes its politics and politicians quite seriously. A state which over the last half century has produced such notables as Everett Dirksen, Paul Douglas, Adlai Stevenson, Jr., Charles Percy, Paul Simon, Alan Dixon, Richard Ogilvie, Dan Walker, Dan Rostenkowski, Richard J. Daley, Harold Washington, Richard M. Daley, Russell Arrington, Phil Rock, Michael Madigan, Pate Phillip, Roland Burris, George Ryan, Jim Edgar, Jim Thompson, Richard Durbin, Barack Obama, Emil Jones, Judy Barr Topinka, and Rod Blagojevich clearly has a great political culture and a compelling political history. We have had our scoundrels and some have ended up in federal prison. We have had our statesmen of the past and some of our present leaders hold national office with great prominence and prospects for national leadership. One of the reasons Illinois politics and government is always so interesting is the fact that the two parties, at least over the long term, have faced each other from a fairly even statewide base. Each party has experienced the ups and downs that go with the electoral tides of the moment, and each has been dominant and each disadvantaged for some period of time. Illinois has been a competitive state for decades; however, from the 1940s through the 1980s the Republicans held a consistent advantage if one judges by control of the majority in the General Assembly.

  • Gore Express Gets Illinois Riders ~
    1 Democratic Party of Illinois) MUR# 1 5/a7 COMPLAINT On behalf of the Republican Party of Illinois, I am filing this complaint pursuant to 2 U.S.C. 0 437(g)(a)( 1) against the Democratic Party of Illinois for the acceptance of prohibited contributions from the State of Illinois. Specifically, the State of Illinois is paying the salary of the Executive Director of the Democratic Party of Illinois, Timothy Mapes. Mr. Mapes also happens to be the Chief of Staff of the Speaker of the House, Michael J. Madigan. Thus, the State of Illinois is paying for Mr. Mapes to be the Democratic Party of Illinois Executive Director. This constitutes a violation of the Federal Election Campaign Act. THE FACTS It is commonly known that Timothy Mapes is the Executive Director of the Democratic Party of Illinois. Yet, in reviewing the reports filed by the Democratic Party of Illinois for the past three years there is only one mention of Timothy Mapes having received a payroll check from the Democratic Party of Illinois. That was in October 1998 in the amount of $2,773.36. (& Attachment 1). We can find no other reference to Timothy Mapes in the 1998, 1999, or 2000 reports of the Democratic Party of Illinois.' I The Democratic Party of Illinois has been very active in this same time frame. In 1998, the Democratic Party of lllinois raised.$l,573,283.74 in hard dollars. In 1999, the Why? Because the State af.Illinois is paying Mr. klapes Salary as the Democratic Party's Executive Director with the consent of House Speaker Michael Madigan.
